Abstract

The automated and integrated management of the social and human dimension of the different sectors involved in food production in Cuba is one of the dimensions of work that needs to strengthen the plan for food sovereignty of the nation. There is an urgent need to better manage the technical and qualified force available to coherently promote the different programs prioritized for food production in each territory. Given this need, the present research aims to show the potential use of the Directory of Actors and Sectors of the Food Sovereignty Observatory as a system that manages information on human resources by ministries related to food production and science in Pinar del Río. The research used different methods and procedures that allowed obtaining as a result a system that compiles information by ministries, productive structures, units and human resources and also describes their dynamics by different variables such as age, sex, skin color, schooling level, scientific category, among other aspects. This system allows for a more comprehensive knowledge of productive capacities, based on the mapping of resources and structures involved in food production in the province.
